That's a known problem with SOAP::Lite v0.51. boolean type in XML
Schema 1999 doesn't accept 'true/false', only '1/0' which is
incorrect. You either need to use XML Schema 2001 (instead of 1999)
which does correct processing or do something like this (right after
'use SOAP::Lite;' or 'use SOAP::Transport::HTTP;'):

*SOAP::XMLSchema1999::Deserializer::as_boolean =
*SOAP::XMLSchemaSOAP1_1::Deserializer::as_boolean =
\&SOAP::XMLSchema2001::Deserializer::as_boolean;

It's already fixed in the current version which will be available
--cough, cough -- really soon. Let me know if you still have any
problem.

Best wishes, Paul.
